U.S. records 100 million Covid cases but more than 200 million Americans have probably had it
Omicron BQ, XBB subvariants are a serious threat to boosters and knock out antibody treatments, study finds
The CDC has subsequently recorded more than 21 million confirmed cases from March through Dec. 21 of this year, although this is an underestimate because people who use rapid tests at home are not picked up in the data. The U.S. has made significant progress since the darkest days of the pandemic. Deaths have dropped about 90% from the pandemic peak in January 2021 when more than 3,000 people were succumbing to the virus daily before widespread vaccination. Daily hospital admissions are down 77% from a peak of more than 21,000 in January 2022 during the massive omicron surge.
"I think people have gotten hardened to it," Frieden said of Covid's toll. "Covid is a new bad thing in our environment, and it's likely to be here for the long term. We don't know how this will evolve, whether it will get less virulent, more virulent — have years that get better and worse." "We're still in the middle of this — it is not over," Fauci told the radio show "Conversations on Health Care" in November. "Four hundred deaths per day is not an acceptable level. We want to get it much lower than that."
